David Hanson (Delyn) (Lab)
North Wales is a major artery to Northern Ireland by road and by boat, and to the Irish Republic by road and by boat, but also to the Irish Republic through Northern Ireland by road and by boat. Given what the Prime Minister has said today—there will be no tariffs on goods “unless they are at risk of entering the EU”; that is in his statement—where and when will the border checks be, and where and when will there be tariffs, because people will face them under his proposals?
The Prime Minister
There are not any tariffs on goods, as the right hon. Gentleman knows full well, going GB-NI or NI-GB.
